How To Make $100 A Month Writing On Medium?
Can You Make Money Without getting curated in a topic or getting published in Popular publication?
The first question is the “Feasibility” of making $100 per month from Medium. Can any writer make $100 a month from Medium? Yes, maybe, you didn’t make a good amount of money in the first month but this doesn’t mean that you will not make more money with passing time.
Like blogging, Medium is also a very similar platform. Getting followers and writing stories takes time. Once, you reach a threshold where you have a very big following, you can make a good amount of money on this platform.
The writers who make $1000 per month on Medium Partner Program
Most of these writers are writing on this platform from the very beginning of this platform. Take for example; The startup publication on Medium, it as old as the day Medium has started the publication feature.
No one, on this platform achieved such great success in a single day. These writers have spent countless hours writing and promoting their content to grow their following or publication.
I published a story talking about the best ways to get more views on Medium stories. It made me $1.5 in a day, this means, if I publish 75 stories in a month, I can easily make that much amount of money. Right? It is easy to say this than to act. But, someday, I might challenge myself to write 75 stories in a single month.
If you make more than $100 in a month on Medium then you will be included in the top 8% of the Medium Partner program earners.
The blueprint of making $100 a month
- Write longer stories. By longer stories, I mean stories of more than 10 Minutes. I never told this to anyone but this works like a charm for me. Write, edit and publish every day. Longer stories will bring more money to the table. I follow a Medium writer who only publishes the content of 10 minutes of reading time or above.
- Write more stories: Writers who are making more than $500 a month from Medium Partner Program has more than 1000 stories on this platform. You are never too late to start. Write one story a day and after two years, you had more than 730 stories on Medium.
- Treat your Medium story as a Product: This is a very good concept. It evolves a sense of design thinking among writers and content creators. I also have a YouTube channel, so this idea helped me too in the process. Your Medium story is an earning machine for you. Write it well and helpful.
- Don’t think about $100: Think different, think bigger and always think about the big picture of the story. Medium.com will be completely different after five years. Maybe, after five years, Medium has more ways for writers to make money of their content. Think about the big picture.
- Write about a niche: As a famous quote is “ Jack of all trades, master of none” be an expert and find your own niche. I write about digital marketing and digital products including Medium and Quora. There are a lot of Quorans are on this platform. I help people in a medium too. This is what I know about and I write about it too. Maybe, in the future, I will write about US politics.
Making $100 a month is a big amount of money for a writer living in an underdeveloped country but a low value in the eyes of a person who is living in a developed country. But, it is fun making money with your writing on a website with the world's best editor.
